Manchester City may have received a boost when they needed it the most

It has been a big week for Manchester City this week. Pep Guardiola signed a two-year contract extension much to the relief of everyone associated with Manchester City. Today will also see Rodri return to the Etihad with his Ballon d’Or trophy. That will be a special moment in front of the City faithful. All things told City have received a massive boost before their Premier League clash with Tottenham today. It does appear to have come at the right time for the world champions.

Pep Guardiola’s contract extension removes any doubt that surrounded his future at Manchester City. It was exactly the news that the world champions needed. Guardiola is the best manager in the game. His commitment to City shows he is still up for the fight. Guardiola’s contract extension shows his players that he is still as determined as ever to maintain City’s spot at the top of English football.

As Erling Haaland said in an interview with Sky Sports, Manchester City has the best manager in world football. City’s number 9 told Sky Sports: “He’s the best manager in the world and I think we all know that. And he’s probably the best that ever existed on the earth.

The news of Guardiola’s extension is a massive boost in itself for the world champions. But the return of Rodri to the club is another. City’s midfield general hasn’t been seen at the Etihad since he suffered a season ending knee injury in City’s 2-all draw with Arsenal. But he will return to the Etihad with his Ballon d’Or trophy. When he is presented to the City fans before kickoff it will be a huge moment for the club and the Manchester City fans. City’s faithful will have the chance to acknowledge the clubs first ever Ballon d’Or winner. That is a cause for celebration in itself. The fact that it’s Rodri that is being presented to the City fans makes the moment that much more special.

Manchester City appeared in need of a boost after four consecutive defeats in all competitions. This week has seen them get that in Pep Guardiola’s contract extension and Rodri’s return home with the Ballon d’Or. The hope is that it gives the City squad the lift they need starting today when they take on Tottenham.
